In March 2013 a plan was put forward for a collection of wind and solar farms in Newborough Farm (part of Borough Fen), along with nearby America Farm and Morris Fen. They were expected to cost around £200million covering 900 acres of Peterborough farmland, the council claimed they would bring in £100million over 25 years. However in 2014 due to a change in government energy tariff's and a lack of support the plan for Newborough Farm has been scrapped.[3]
